Sticks & Stones

If you're unaware of what Big W is, it is a store in Aus much like K-mart, Target etc. Anyway we went up to the city the other day & pretty much the only shop we had time to go to was Big W. Since Winter is approaching over here for me, I was inspired by Aria @ Make-me up   to go on a boot hunt. Originally I found a pair I liked from the shoe shed but I found these & couldn't justify spending $70 instead of only $30! I also preferred to buy boots in the store so I could try them on and then if they didn't fit I'd have to send them back blah blah all that mucking around so I found these & I quite liked them I also had time to have a quick look at the cosmetics, & lucky for me there were quite a few specials so I got this Rimmel Lipstick (My first Rimmel item =)) & CG Lipstain (Which I had wanted for agess & since it was about $6 cheaper I had to get it) & Also 2 FOA items- Impact-full Volumising Mascara & Blush in Outback Primrose. not the

Most of these were before I started getting into makeup seriously or when I had just started. Oh & I realized I had deleted heaps so I went into my old photobucket account & found waay more.Oh my gosh I had so much fun looking at this pics, remembering how much of a poser I used to be hahaha.

Ages ago I did a smokey pink look & I wanted to recreate it to make it look a bit more dramatic... even though I don't think it's that much more dramatic I liked how it turned out & I thought, why not make a tutorial again. So Yeah... :)  1. Apply your eye primer. I used TFSI . I also put some tape on the outer corner. 2.Apply your colour base all over the lid. I used NYX JEP in Milk + Slate. Blend out. 3. Apply your pink all over the lid. I actually didn't mean to cover the slate part =/ so if you want it more intense only apply over the milk 4.Apply your chosen darker shade to the outer lid, patting it on outwards & diagonally. Blend with the pink as you go. 5. Apply more if needed & blend into the crease. 6. Remove the tape, Apply pink to the lower lash line & the gray into the outer corner, sweeping it up to get rid of the harsh line from the tape. 7. Add some black into the outer v to darken it up 8. Add your eyeliner & tightline  9. Highlight,

Olive oil , or more specifically Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a great makeup remover & is also very moisturizing!  I use every Extra Virgin Olive Oil every night as a moisturizer, for my eyes & my face. After I wipe off my makeup with makeup wipes & use my cleanser, I pour some EVOO onto a cotton bud & apply it to my face much the same way as a toner, & in a way it is a toner because it helps to remove extra makeup that didn't quite want to budge. & Then I rub it into my skin like you would with a moisturizer. I find that it's particularly great for removing stubborn eyeliner & waterproof mascara, & it is great for conditioning the eye lashes as well. If you're too scared to use it like that, you can always use it only as a makeup remover for the face, and/or eyes & then use your cleanser after wards. Also I would like to note that I have dry acne prone skin, but using this does not cause any more breakouts for me then I usually get (&
